My mother used to say, “You still don’t ask? You still don’t get.”

So, I’m still asking: Phone both your Senators and your Representative TODAY. Do it for yourself. Do it for your family.

If you expect your politicians to work for you, do a little work for you, first. Phone, or better yet, see them face-to-face. Demand; demand; demand.

To find your members of Congress go to: https://www.congress.gov/.  The U.S. Capitol switchboard is: 202-224-3121

When you get them on the line, say, “The federal government can’t run out of dollars, but my family can. I want Medicare for All, better Social Security, and an end to FICA. What are you doing to make that happen?“

Be polite, but don’t believe excuses like “deficits,” “debt,” or “inflation.” Those are phony excuses. The government funds tax cuts for the rich and for wars, so it can pay for all your benefits, and without raising taxes or causing inflation..

Recruit your friends to do the same. The more voices, the louder the voices, the more the politicians  will listen.

Keep at it. Do it again and again, and yet again when the new Congress takes over in January. Tell me what excuses you run into. I’ll give you the facts.

Did you know:
1The government creates dollars at will. It can’t run short,
2 It could fund Medicare for All plus Social Security, without collecting taxes.
3 Federal deficit spending to cure shortages, cures inflation.
4 Deficits grow the economy. Reducing the debt leads to recessions
